The Minnesota Timberwolves had this all crash down upon them after a healthy start to the season when Karl-Anthony Towns, Taurean Prince, Jordan McLaughlin, Rudy Gobert, and Jaden McDaniels missed a handful of games.

Last season, the Wolves tallied the most made threes by any team (1,211) and collectively shot just shy of 36% from deep (35.8%). They were ranked in the top half of...27047Sat, 03 Dec 2022 07:30:14 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/ant-can-use-this-opportunity-to-iron-out-lingering-offensive-issues-r27045/Karl-Anthony Towns’ calf injury will have a serious effect on the Minnesota Timberwolves.
